Disable Seach Engine ListingsSearch engines use web crawler (spider/robot) which browses WWW in an automated manner to provide up-to-date data. But what if one doesn’t want to get listed? Yes, “robots.txt” comes into play when you have to set your own trend whether to allow bots or prevent your site from being crawled!
Place robots.txt in your root directory with the following parameters and it will keep all robots out:
| Quote: | User-agent: *
Disallow: /
|
An alternate way to prevent robots from indexing your page is by placing <META> tag in the <HEAD> section of your page. To block all robots, use:
| Code: |
<META NAME=”ROBOTS” CONTENT=”NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW”> |
To allow other robots to index except Googlebot, use the following tag:
| Code: | | <META NAME=”GOOGLEBOT” CONTENT=”NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW”> |
